28 Connecting to the ToolBox Web-GUI
There are three graphical user interface (GUI) options for configuring Tieline G5 codecs:
1. Java Toolbox Web-GUI: codecs can be fully configured including program creation, dial and
hangup, command and control.
2. HTML5 Toolbox Web-GUI: most codec settings can be configured, dial and hangup existing
programs only, quick connect option available for simple peer-to-peer connections,
command and control.
3. HTML5 Toolbox Quick Connect Web-GUI: designed for simple peer-to-peer connections and
non-technical users.
About the Java Toolbox Web-GUI
Codecs can be fully configured using the Java ToolBox Web-GUI and this can be launched using an
IP/LAN connection with the codec. Instructions for using the Java web-GUI are contained in the
application itself from the Help panel and additional information is available at
http://www.tieline.com/support/toolbox. The Tieline Java Toolbox Web-GUI application runs on:
· Internet Explorer 11 or greater on Windows® XP, Windows Vista ® and Windows 7 ®.
· Firefox® 3 or greater on Windows ® XP, Windows Vista ®, Windows 7 ®, Windows 10 ®,
Solaris™ and Linux®.
Java Toolbox Web-GUI Prerequisites
1. To use the Java ToolBox Web-GUI you will need to download the latest version of Java™ by
visiting http://www.java.com. The Web-GUI will prompt you to do this if Java is not installed
and you attempt to launch the Java ToolBox Web-GUI.
2. After updating to the latest version of Java you need to refresh your browser.
About the HTML5 Toolbox Web-GUI
The HTML5 Toolbox Web-GUI was developed to improve the user experience with G5 codec
command and control. With some major web-browsers moving away from Java compatibility, Tieline
has delivered an HTML5 configuration option which runs seamlessly on modern browsers.
The HTML5 Toolbox Web-GUI will run on computers and tablets, as well as iOS and Android
smartphones, which expands the range of devices engineers can now use for configuration. In
addition, many users have previously experienced connectivity issues due to regular Java updates
designed to mitigate exposure to security vulnerabilities. By using the HTML5 Toolbox these issues
will be avoided.
Most codec settings can be configured using the HTML5 Toolbox Web-GUI, including:
· Dial and hangup existing programs only (currently program creation wizard is not available).
· Quick connect option available for simple peer-to-peer connections: configure IP, SIP, ISDN
and POTS connections including the algorithm, sample rate, bit-rate and dial
number/address.
· Extensive command and control of codec settings.
About the HTML5 Toolbox Quick Connect
The HTML5 Toolbox Quick Connect Web-GUI has a reduced feature-set and allows non-technical
users to load existing programs and dial via the Quick Connect panel. Users can dial a simple
peer-to-peer connection over POTS, ISDN or IP.
